It is a great pleasure to announce this year’s 13th Annual Orthopaedic Resident Review Trauma course . This course will be held at the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel, Toronto Airport, in Mississauga, Ontario on November 26-28 2020

The Orthopaedic Resident Review in Trauma course is designed to provide orthopaedic residents with a comprehensive orthopaedic trauma review. The 3-day course will cover aspects of orthopaedic trauma management over five topic areas: Shoulder and Elbow; the Forearm and Wrist; the Hip and Femur; the Knee, Tibia, Ankle, and Foot; and the Pelvis, Acetabulum, Spine, and Advanced Trauma Life Support. The course will include lectures based on a “Top 10 Things You Need to Know” format, as well as small breakout case-based learning sessions. The small group scenario sessions will yield a high faculty to participant ratio, which will create a dynamic learning environment. Sessions will be delivered by our highly regarded faculty, which has been compiled with representatives from universities across Canada. Accordingly, sections of this course will be offered in both English and French.

In addition to the topic-oriented sessions, this course offers the opportunity for orthopaedic residents to partake in a mock oral examination within an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) style format at the conclusion of the course. This optional post course examination will also include grading and immediate feedback provided by our renowned faculty members. We strongly believe that this program will give participants a comprehensive review of the relevant knowledge of current orthopaedic trauma management.

Registration for the Orthopaedic Resident Review in Trauma course is available at three different levels. The gold level includes participation in the 3-day course, an OSCE style examination with feedback, and access to additional OSCE style online cases for study and use after the course. The silver level includes participation in the 3-day course, as well as an OSCE style examination with feedback. Participants who register at the Bronze level will receive full access to all lectures and breakout sessions over the three days. Please note that these levels are fixed and access to the online cases is only available through a gold level registration. Registration fees for the three levels are available on the registration form to follow.﻿

Registration is now open and available below. We encourage you to register early, as space is limited. Our Course Coordinator is available to assist you with all aspects of the registration process. Please feel free to contact the Course Coordinator by email. We offer you a very warm invitation to attend the Orthopaedic Resident Review in Trauma course on November 26-28 2020.

Course Directors

Most regard Dr. Bhandari as the foremost authority in the translation of Orthopaedic research to clinical practice (evidence-based orthopaedics).﻿

A University of Toronto graduate in Medicine, Dr. Bhandari completed both his Orthopaedic and Master’s of Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics training at McMaster University. To broaden his clinical trauma exposure, he trained with world experts in Los Angeles, California and Minneapolis, Minnesota. Dr. Bhandari’s clinical interests include the management of patients with complex lower extremity fractures and fractures of the pelvis and acetabulum.

He has received international recognition for his research efforts including a nationally recognized Canada Research Chair in MusculoskeletalTrauma — the only chair of its kind in Canada. Dr. Bhandari has also received the Edouard J. Samson Award for a Canadian Orthopaedic surgeon with the greatest impact on research in the last 5 years, the Founder’s Medal for Research, and Randomized trial Mentoring Award from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. Recent awards include the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada Medal in Research, Kappa Delta/OREF Clinical Research Award, Top Achievements in Health Research Award (CMAJ/CIHR), the Canadian Orthopaedic Association Award of Merit and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons Mentor of the Year Award (Ontario).

Over the past 5 years, Dr. Bhandari has published hundreds of peer-reviewed papers across top medical and Orthopaedic journals including New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, BMJ, CMAJ, and the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American.
